I've always enjoyed doing the u-turn box in my MSF courses. It's remarkably easy on a dual sport or a low slung cruiser, but things get interesting with a sportbike.

I wonder how my Ninja 1000 would do. Might need to head to a parking lot and burn off a few thousand miles of clutch material.

Used to think the same thing but sprot bikes do just fine. Technique, you got to have the technique.

Glad your not up to your arm pits in crocs & snakes SS. Watching the news it looks like half the continent is burning & the other half drowning.
Some of the sparks have blown across the ditch & set Canterbury alight.

This was part of my G/F's biggest ride to date. She's going like a legend, I did give her a bollicking for not backing off going up the hill when it got wet. Her second slide slowed her own. All skills learned in a car park....

Would that be a give way sign just prior to the waterfall?
Spectacular!

they kinda built the road around the water fall, in that section it goes to 1 lane, give way on one side. the water fall goes between the road and the cliff. but when it rains, it gets bigger, and of course, goes over the road.

heres a ride about a year ago, you can see it in the back ground,

and you ask why were we stopped in the middle of the road? and special thanks to the kind lollypop lady who saw me taking a photo and asked if i wanted her to take one of us.

Great video. One question comes to my mind. I had always learned the set of hand signals that use the non-throttle hand. Yet in the video they use throttle side signals for slowing, turning right, passing, etc. Is that due to driving on the left side or did the convention change some time after this film?
